The Dragon Guardian (Lochguard Highland Dragons 2) - Page 93

law should be here shortly, if not already. Let’s wait for her. I can introduce you to more people along the way.”

Meg interjected, “But don’t set your sights on anyone yet, child, until you’ve met my Alistair.”

Fergus answered dryly, “I’m not sure Alistair would like to know his mother is trying to set him up.”

Meg waved a hand. “He’s had nearly thirty years to do it himself. If I don’t try, he’ll never find someone. He spends too much time reading. He should socialize more often.”

Rather than answer, Fergus opened the door and smiled at Gina with love as she walked out with her sister. They would have a good laugh about Meg’s antics later. Knowing what Gina did of Alistair, he wouldn’t welcome his mother’s matchmaking efforts.

Kaylee leaned over and whispered, “I keep pinching myself to make sure I’m not dreaming. Not only because I’ve found you, but also because we’re on freaking dragon-shifters’ land. I never thought I’d see the day.”

Gina laughed. “I’ve been here over two weeks, and I still think it’s a dream.”

Fergus appeared at her other side just as Lorna rushed into the room with Jamie. Her son had to be wrapped in eight blankets by now.

Lorna stopped in front of them and looked between Gina and Kaylee. “Aye, I see the resemblance. The hair and eye colors are different, but the faces are the same.”

Gina motioned toward Lorna. “This is Lorna MacKenzie, my mother-in-law. Lorna, this is Kaylee MacDonald, my younger sister.”

Lorna smiled. “Welcome to Lochguard, child.”

Fraser, Faye, Holly, and Ross rushed into the room. Ross was out of breath. “You move quick for your age, Lorna.”

Lorna raised her brows. “Aye? I think you just need more exercise. Or maybe it’s those four years you keep lording over me.”

Before Ross could do more than frown, Kaylee pointed at Fraser and then Fergus. “There are two of you?”

Fraser wrapped an arm around Holly, but Faye was the one to answer. “I know. Sometimes I wonder why. One brother is more than enough to try my patience.”

Fergus growled out, “Faye.”

Faye shrugged. “What? I’m just telling the truth. With you two out of the house, I have better access to Mum’s scones. We should’ve kicked you out years ago.”

“You and the bloody scones. You should learn to make them yourself,” Fergus muttered.

As much as Gina loved her in-laws, she didn’t want Kaylee’s first impression to be of them bickering for ten minutes, as they were wont to do. She put out her hands to Lorna. “Can I have Jamie?”

Lorna handed over a sleeping Jamie. Gina carefully removed four blankets before moving closer to her sister. “This is Jamie. Say hello to your Auntie Kaylee, Jamie.”

Gina gently maneuvered her son into Kaylee’s arms. Her sister smiled. “He’s so tiny.”

“Believe me, when he was coming out, he didn’t feel tiny,” Gina murmured.

Kaylee chuckled. “I won’t argue with that.” She touched Jamie’s cheek and he moved for a second before settling again. “I can’t wait to spoil you, little man.”

Gina sighed. “Between you and the MacKenzies, I’m going to have to be vigilant if I want him to ever learn how to do things by himself.”

Fergus came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. She relaxed against her mate’s chest as he answered, “I’ll help you, lass. My brother is the one to watch out for.”

Fraser ignored Fergus. He and Holly moved closer to Kaylee. “I think introductions are in order. I’m Fraser, the more handsome and clever of the MacKenzie twins. And this here is my mate, Holly.” Fraser motioned toward Faye. “The annoying female over there with the wild hair is my sister, Faye.”

Faye growled. “My offer still stands, Fraser. Let’s shift and settle this once and for all.”

Kaylee jumped in. “I wouldn’t mind seeing a few dragons up close.”

Thankfully, Grant stepped forward. “I think it best to use our energy on rebuilding. The fights can wait for later.”

Faye murmured, “Killjoy.”
